About
Internationally renown Speaker, Facilitator, Trainer & Coach on Different Ways of Thinking
There are 3 skills every individual, group and team needs to achieve higher performance. These are doing, people and thinking skills.
We have focused on the first two but ignored the last one – until now.
Enhancing your thinking skills is now the biggest opportunity to enhance performance and results.
It’s why I have developed a range of Creative Thinking Tools, Speed Thinking and Switch Thinking.
My tools are fast, simple and practical and can be used by individuals, groups & teams.
My speaking, facilitation, mentoring and training projects takes me all around Australia with a particular focus on Asia.
A Phd in Organisational Creativity
My PhD is in Organisational Creativity (UWS) as well as a MBA (UNE) and B.Bus (UTS).
My official thesis was ‘Designing a continuously creative organisation’ which was informed by interviewing over 80 leaders from 50 different organisations (profit and non-profit).
In addition, I have been lecturing part-time at UTS for over 10 years.
Former Marketing Director
Before establishing my own business I was a Marketing Director at American Express as well as a Product Manager at Citibank and Dunlop Slazenger.
I have also worked as a senior leader in advertising, direct marketing and management consulting across a wide variety of categories and industries.
My clients include big and small brands from every industry and category across Australia and Asia.
International Author
I have written 3 books that have been published (by Allen & Unwin) in 9 countries. These are:
- The Idea Generator
- The Idea Accelerator
- Speed Thinking.
I have also written over 50 articles in various magazines across Australia and Asia on creativity, innovation, speed thinking, reinvention and disruption. Here are a few of these articles.
My other passions
I learn Kung Fu and have played 1st grade cricket and soccer.
This has given me a glimpse of what it takes to unlock higher individual & team performance.
Most of all I would like to help you and your team get stuff done with more agility, creativity and energy.
